Yes I am aware that they're somehow supposed to reduce plastic waste because the cap can't get lost ... unless you cut it off, of course.
Yes I am also aware that there are people with disabilities (shaky hands, weak grip, etc.) who are thankful for these and actually like the design. Good for them, and I mean that in a non-sarcastic way.
But personally, I hate these things with all the "first world problems" rage I can muster and go out of my way to rip / cut / twist them off on every single bottle I buy. I don't like having the bottle cap directly in my face while drinking, or slipping in the way of the flow whenever I just want to pour milk, and on more than one occasion, I've actually cut my finger OR lip on these little sh*ts (not the same type as in the picture, but baldy-made longer "bands" that leave little plastic spikes on the cap and/or band).
No idea whether I should post this in the "unpopular opinion" section instead or if other people think the same, but to me, "mildly infuriating" describes them perfectly.
Oh...yeah, that does look a lot closer to it. Thanks for pointing it out ^^ I'm going to edit the post.

That's an interesting zero-effort way to farm clicks... I guess coming up with some actual clickbait to boost engagement was too much work?
Eat them dry while maintaining eye contact to assert dominance.
Do they at least keep the monstie element / color change this time? TBH I was severely disappointed in MonHun Stories when I learned that they removed the only gameplay feature that kept gameplay interesting after the main story.
Abso-friggen-lutely. But don't forget that blahajs need a special diet so if you want to share a cup with them, you need something like this: (100% vegan and alcohol-free as well. AND zero calories!)
Plushies count too.
It's okay to use any other beverage as a substitute ... and any other pet for company. It's the spirit of the holiday that counts ♪
big pair of chopsticks to flip deep-frying stuff,
100% this. I have a pair of metal chopsticks that I use exclusively for frying food, especially small, super sticky stuff like nan gua bing. Most wooden ones here (Germany) have some sort of artificial coating and I'm a bit worried about it melting or releasing chemicals when it gets too hot, so I don't want to dunk these into hot oil.

I was taught the "Weak Standard Grip" ...thanks, I guess? XD
How are y'all holding them?
Not sure if that really counts as "a game" for this community, but I reactivated my old Neopets account after a long hiatus. The site is still broken AF but just as fun as I remembered, and there is talk of an upcoming plot across the boards.
German here. I had to send mine in four times since buying them, and always got a joke invoice of zero Euro for the repairs/swap. However, they never said they were going to replace them for free, and the poor guy I pestered on the hotline just kept saying I should send them in, as if he was forbidden to make any promises.
Long story short; it can't hurt to try even when they not openly advertise the free-of-charge repairs.
I always called it "clutter" tho I don't know whether this is in any way official. De-cluttering an inventory means tossing the useless stuff out or packing it away.
In Germany, pretty much every supermarket has 2 special bins near the entrance, one for lightbulbs and one for batteries. Maybe there's something similar in your area?
Otherwise I'd check with shops or hardware stores that sell these and/or a local electrician how they dispose of these and whether they'd be willing to take yours as well.
